## Number of Arguments
### Objectives
* Write a script that will print "Got it: <argument value>" in case of one argument
* In case no arguments were provided, it will print "Usage: ./<program name> <argument>"
* In case of more than one argument, print "hey hey...too many!"
### Solution
```
#!/usr/bin/env bash
set -eu
main() {
case $# in
0) printf "%s" "Usage: ./<program name> <argument>"; return 1 ;;
1) printf "%s" "Got it: $1"; return 0 ;;
*) return 1 ;;
esac
}
main "$@"
```
